Designing Infinity Operation: Icestorm
July 29, 2014 by dignity
We dive into the design process with Carlos form Corvus Belli for a discussion about the miniature concepts for Operation: Icestorm.
Watch out for Justin's favorite and let us know below which design has caught your eye the most. Oh and by doing so you will have entered into our awesome prize draw. Easy isn't it!
Get Commenting!




I few seconds ago I was whining elsewhere about not getting enough Infinity conent and now this vid is there.
You made a grown man drop some sweet tears of joy.
MASSIVE PRICE? PLZ!
Yes More Infinity!
Lovely… Just lovely!
I’m loving the new Spektr – getting to know the thinking behind the design is always nice. PS Try to convince Carlos to sell Infinity Art Books made up of the concept pages.
Excellent content guys, keep it up!
Wayhay. That’s more like it. 🙂
Artwork for Infinity is always top notch and stunning to see.
Oh my god that mobile brigada ROCKS
The Mobile Brigada is awesome!
MORE INFINITY……..
Ye gads! Love me the infinity!
Love the look of the Nomads!
The new mobile brigada looks amazing.
That Mobile Brigada miniature looks amazing
Father looks amazind 😀
Amazing design. And the miniatures are a perfect representation of the images shown.
The Spektr is Awesome!
All the minis look amazing but I have to say that the Nomads a bit better in my eyes.
Could be because of the paint scheme though. I’m a sucker for red armor especially of this quality.
Keep the updates coming nice work guys.
Some Infinity figures would be nice.
This is Inifinity-week is going to get me to dive into the game
The new direction that Infinity is taking is amazing!
Love me some Nomads. Amazing concepts as always.
Love it!
I wish my painting skills were up to the level of their artwork. Nice stuff.
Im loving the poses of the new Agucilles, but to be honest, they all look amazing!
nice
That knight looks amazing!
This will rekindle the game for me.
Love Infinity…their models are stunning and nice to paint, though sometimes a bit fiddly. I always worry about some of the thinner models getting damaged and making me cry.
Very glad to hear about the conscious decisions made to have the figures easier to assemble. Loved them before, but the antennae were enough to cause an aneurysm.
the infinity stuff is very nice
I really like the way Bostria gives an impression of the decision processes behind this box.
The main thing I love about this boxset is that it contains the two armies I was actually thinking of getting. lol
With sculpts like these though. It would have been nice if it were possible to field an all female army. lol
Need icestorm now!!!
If I pre order now in UK from the likes of Wayland Games, will we get the free mini?
Also, well done CB on these new models they are fantastic, compared to the old ones. Are we going to see a whole new redesign of the entire range over time? For example, how long will it be before I can buy a Mobile Brigada like the one in the starter pack?
Nice pronunciation @dignity!!!!!….Spaniard accent and all…MUY BIEN!!!!
Really impressive, I love the 3-D modelling; but the concept art is really beautiful too!
I do like the look of the Nomad female line trooper.
Love the Brigada concept. Keep up the good work!
awesome concept art for the csu model, and the range just looks awsome, cant wait till its released
It’s a great time to be getting in to this game.
The new minis look realy cool, would love to get my friends to start playing infinity.
Love the style.
hearing carlos’ dedication to the design principles (even just for the starter box) has given me even more respect for all things infinity. these guys love their game and it shows.
I agree with you Justin, the Reverend Healer is a fantastic looking model. And his artwork for her is beautiful. I may have to start playing nomads now.
Enjoyed that, always good to hear what the thought process was for some of these things.
looking forward to my boxset.
My only issue is I havent finished painting even half of my deadzone box yet, and I’ve got 15 infinity miniatures arriving.
Very Informative
Can’t wait to see the new tunguska models!
nice to see what is going on backstage when they are making their design. got job. can´t wait to get my prize:-)
Interesting designs. I like it.
Quite a few interesting insights. Designer’s notes are what I would love to see covered more often. Especially if so much thought went into it like with CB.
Beautiful concepts as always, if only the poses that they resulted in weren’t so silly
As a Pan-O player, I’m especially glad for the new Fusiliers
Excellent.
Mobile brigada every time. Keep it coming, brilliant.
The Mobile Brigada still wins this box.
Ive seen these pictures before but the commentary makes it worth while to see again. Love the art style of infinity
Another great video. Really interesting to hear about how the decisions are made of both what gets included and changes to the design style.
Love it !
Roll on August the 31st
The father knight is my favorite. He looks so amazing.
The Mobile Brigada I like most. I need it for my qapu khalqi. I always wanted one but did not like the old design. Second is the Father Knight, followed by the Nisse. Its name must be Tomte Tumetot…
I really like the new design for the MB, both in terms of the concept and the execution of the sculpt. Of course the Spektr (great pose) and the new Fusilier designs are awesome too!
this looks great
This is great!
Wonderful Designs, definetly the right direction for the Future.
Love the fusiliers more than anything else. If the foot-grunts are so beautiful this game is worth every penny.
The Nisses sniper is probably my favourite design, despite all of them being great – that greatcoat is just too good!
The design is really amazing.
Infinity is super awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve never been into infinity but Fusilier miniature totally bought me. Maybe it’s time to give it a chance 😉
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme!!!
Icestorm week has started awesomely! Keep it up!
I know the Mobile Brigada takes the cake, but I really like the look of the Grenzer the most. As for the model, the new Spektr is actually really neat.
Always, always, always love seeing Infinity concept art. 🙂
I absolutely love those interventors. Neeeed…
ORC or the Grenzer art looks best.
Nice!
I Never played infinity before,but this is all amazing stuff. I think i will give it a try or what about the massive Price? 😀 gimme gimme
Amazing stuff!
This Icestorm box is going to be a huge hit!
They included a great range of minis in the box. Both factions get some Heavy Infantry and exclusive models. I’m sold!
Minis always looked cool, but I love the subtle shift in art direction.
I like them all it’s hard to resist just collecting all the minis
Such awsome designs! Father Knight FTW.
Interesting discussion, but will my painting do justice to the superb models
The skirt suit’s a very nice futuristic fashion design.
The Mobile Bregada is of course really great, but I find the Grenzer especially interesting. Can’t wait to learn what it can do!
I cracked up when Carlos trolled Justin. Justin you’re a good sport sir!
Also, I might use that dual sided rulebook to help me learn a bit of Spanish. Rosetta Stone and Infinity, what a combo!
I’ve been following the design process for Infinity for quite a while, especially from slides and artwork revealed at places like Gencon and other specialist hobby shows, the designs have always been thoroughly eye catching but my only complaint is that the posing of Infinity minis can be a bit weird, rather than looking as though they are in a firefight many minis are posed as though they are on a catwalk for a photography shoot. It’s the one element of Corvus Belli’s design that stops their figs being the defacto best on the market imo.
Great vid as usual though BoW! 😀
It’s always nice to hear Carlos talking about Infinity and the decisions that go into the designs.
Enjoying the week so far. Awesome desings
That knight is awesome. I cant wait to pick it up at GenCon.
Amazing concepts for amazing miniatures.
Great designs
Fantastic!
Always interesting to see concept to model.
Nice insight into the design process
Amazing edition to infinity, cant wait! ~Hi5 for prize draw!
Carlos gets a lot of air time on here… luckily
Oooh missus – “All-together pics” are a completely different matter 😉
The Mobile Brigada HAS to be considered the best model – it is such a good update to a very dated model. I love the way the design ties in so well with the Iguana squad, Gecko and ‘Cats. Don’t get me wrong, the limited-to-box Pan-O Knight is sweet too, but the Mobile Brigada has to be the best model.
Very impressed by the set and I plan on picking one up soon.
Love Nomads and are always looking forward to new sectorials and more minis
Awesome pooling starter kit! What’s not to like!
Looking…. Bloody spell control
Everything in this box is beautiful. At this rate they could put out nothing be resculpts and have no complaints from me. The new Mobile Brigada is awesome, but it love the line troops more than anything else.
I like the sci-fi Grenzer idea! It is so interesting! The Grezers were Croatian,Italian, Serbian, Hungarian and Romanian soldiers, who defended the southern borders of the Habsburg(Austrian) Empire! They had fast made and cheap uniforms. These were made by modified local, native clothings (like greatcoats or attila jackets). But in the later era of the Napoleonic wars these regiments had more modern uniforms like the regular Austrian or Hungarian soldiers, just with other colours! But the Infinity style is more awesome! 😀
nomads for the win
The Father-Knight is just glorious…
looks good
So dark magic and blood sacrifices is Angles trade secret.
I need to improve my painting, any volunteers?
Very interesting
Infinity Artbook Two please! 😀
Always interested in the thoughts behind the design process. Well done indeed.
Fantastic set but lost me when the figures turned out to be more multi-part metals – the only reason I haven’t pursued this game.in the past – not robust enough for my fat fingers :-/
Grenzer, hands down.
DAME this is such a good box set can’t wait to get this. No money to pre order it.
Love it!
Easy… they are all damn cool.
some great stuff. great looking starter set
More awesome… now!!!
How amazing concepts! Great video!!
models are beautiful but why you didn’t made highlanders as starter
Im not repainting my panOceania fusiliers lol. But i like the new blue too
when i will get into tunguska?, who knows but this box surely is a first step, haha.
For someone who is new to the game, these insightes are great and suprisingly good to follow. Really insane what huge amount of work goes into even the smallest detail. And the result is spectacular.
These videos are really making wonder what the hell took me so long to take the plunge and try out this game; great minis, tons of third-party support and a company that appears to really care about its customer base…I am totally sold…
Might need to start a Nomad army now
Both factions are extremely well done… Awesome game…
No time to watch now, but will have to pick it up later.
When you’re given a range of options and one of them is a sexy nun with a giant gun, there is no real question about which you’ll choose.
love how they have streamlined the design of PanO troops into more cohesive fighting force, very fluff fitting of a massive military complex as opposed to mix and match feel (Fusiliers are going to look great next to the new Bolts, alongside the amazing new ORC)
I like prizes. I LOVE Infinity! And Nomads are the best!
I’m leaning towards the Nomads out of the box myself, I’m liking the Reverend Healer myself
great arts
I bought into Nomads for the Reverends. Any new Reverend sculpt is where it’s at.
Love the new direction of the art.
I really like the new art direction. I was going to just get the starter set and keep nomads as a guest force, but now I am eagerly waiting the “box of mobile brigada” for a future sectorial! Just take my money already CB
As much as I like the models, I can’t get past the overcoat on the one PanO model. It feels like they started to lose inspiration there.
the price is going to hammer my wallet, but at least you always know that the models will be of excellent quality
Looking to preorder it!
Always been a bit ambivalent towards the Nomads but these redesigns coupled with the recent TAG minis have really grabbed my attention.
September? Awww, but I want it now.
Brilliant stuff in this. Cannot wait for this game to finally have a starter of its own
Love finding out about how the design decisions were made for both armies. I really like their concept art style and layouts.
I am really looking forward to getting my mitts on OP Icestorm. I pre-ordered it straightaway and now all I need is to find a way to get Ángel Giráldez or Romain to paint the miniatures for me and voilà, it would be the best Christmas come early I could hope for.
Dat Nisse and Orc…..so awesome
More Infinity weeks please 🙂
There’s a good list of interesting changes on these profiles.
Still enjoying the nomads in this.
Nice work guys! Artbook 2?
They look soo good. I may put off getting into Hordes
Hordes is awesome! Get both.
Man, I wish my FLGS had Infinity players, so I had a better excuse to buy this set. Probably the best looking model IMO (i.e. my favorite) is the Mobile Brigada, but literally every mini in this is pure class.
I love stuff like this!
I love the art direction of infinity I havnt played it but will deffinatly be getting this starter set.
Fantastic! These videos are really drawing me into the game.
Not a huge fan of Pan-O but the Nomads? Oh my!
love the knight!
I’m currently thinking about jumping into this fabulous looking game!
please more videos !!
They made the boobs bigger, nice.
The reverend and the mobile brigada are great!!
love the look of both armies,but as a pan’o player realy liking the new sculpts for the fusilers and the orc troops,and the farther is knight is realy impressive.
The changes for third edition are interesting, any word on when the full version will be released?
Is it Gen Con yet? Can’t wait to pick this up.
So we can speculate for more heavys for nomads ?
Love the mobile brigada!!
If I have to choose It would be the mobile Brigada, but I really belive all the box is the winner for me, it has taken me from non infinity to a pro-infinity.
Really good and interesting run through of the design process – it’s reassuring that the Corvus Belli crew have been doing some clever thinking not just about the redesign, but how best to use the opportunity to give Infinity a tune-up and draw in new players. Excited about the new direction, but massive nostalgia about the old sculpts and logos! Still, Nisses for the win!
gief plox
Loving the new miniature design path. The new Orc trooper is one of the best new sculpts.
Maaaannnn…I already bought into Dust Tactics but this looks so awesome and then there is the Dungeon delving kickstarter from Mantic. So many games and so little money. Crapski.
another video another comment as for the new looks im hoping my scotish army don’t loose their kilts cause that’s how real men fight balls flying in the wind
love this insight in the design-philosophy behind the models and the factions!!
Insightful insight in the creation of the new miniatures. But to me the new MI looks a little bit too much like HI. (Although they look pretty awesome)
I can’t choose just 1 , the whole box I amazing
Infinity is awesome
Not one bad sculpt in the entire set!
Did Carlos really just say Ángel Giráldez sacrificed a couple of virgins!? I love you guys.
I, too, would like a massive prize….
More updates like this is great.
The only bad thing about these vids is that I have to wait for my pre-order
Justins love of good minis really shows in his videos.
I really like the changes that they have made to the PanO mini’s, all of them look pretty badass now.
Really like the armour, all of it. Has nice SF feel without being silly.
The Mobile Brigada is without a doubt the nicest re-design yet ‘
More of that.
Dem Nomads! I have to say every time I see them I want to play Mass Effect with my red armored (and sexy) FemShepard. I mean really guys and gals, an Infinity video game that played and look liked the Mass Effect series would be very rewarding. More story plot > than action focused.
I don’t recall a comprehensive box set like this where I liked every miniature in it. The time Corvus Belli put in designing it shows in the results.
Looking forward to this Starter Set.
Carlos, you’ve “strongly” recommended we get the OIS box with the yellow sticker several times… is there something you’re not telling us? I know the CSU exclusive comes in it but my suspicion grows!
they might just want a healthy pre-order to back the production run
The new sculpts are going to be the death of me… but mostly my wallet..
oh man those designs look great, really translated to the mini quite well.
I honestly can’t be more excited about Operation Icestorm. Es el major juego en el mundo!!
I’m sold on the Nomads. Red armour, green hair, Hells yeah!
I really enjoy seeing the behind the scenes of where our miniatures bubble up from. It sounds like Corvus Belli have a really tight design process which really shows through from their range.
How can you not love the Grenzers!!
amazing!
So stoked for explosion of new infinity gamers. This game has needed a proper starter box for years.
Yaaay.
now to work on my combined army and ninja Japanese force.. 😉
Here’s hoping close combat is money
From an artist point of view, this video was really interesting. Seeing how the design decisions were made and the whys and hows of models inclusion into each force made me wan to get the sketchbooks out once more. I always liked the Infinity artworks, which is exactly the reason why I will buy the 3rd edition book without hesitation. 😉
I have too many games already. I have so many unpainted miniatures, I started using project management software to keep track of my painting schedule (so I can finally get some full armies completed rather than a bit here and a bit there). This is a great-looking starter set that I absolutely do not need right now.
*crosses fingers and hopes to win a starter set*
Curse you. Curse you all.
The art and minis of infinity are some of the best in sci-fi wargaming IMO.
CSU looks fine /:) wonder the stats and the rules
Love the mobile brigada!
Seems like a good entry point into the world of Infinity.
I hope this brings some new energy to the game. I love this game and hope more players will pick it up.
love the nomads!
Loving the new ideas and sculpts! Go panoceania
That Mobile Brigada is soooo much better than the old one, love it! 😀
Love listening to Carlos
all of this infinity coverage is great!
Nomads in general are pretty eye catching.
Can’t wait for this to launch so I can introduce Infinity to my community. Love the style and fluff of the nomads.
Love the Grenzers and the Father Knight.
I’m loving everything from this set!
Great Video and EXCELLENT starter, i like how the game is evolving on the right way. Thanks for the chance of winning a starter! best wishes from VENEZUELA! 😀
Mobile Brigada is pretty cool . I do like it the best
I’m already buying the new box. I’m just here for the prizes.
Love what I am seeing ! Keep it coming!
Favorite design has to be the Father Knight, with the Orc troop a close second. Love their HI designs, almost as much as their new T.A.G. designs.
Great stuff!
Great video very informative very smart idea using the basic sculpt as a starting point for the other models.
Again the detail is fabulous, GW take note! It sort of puts the fine cast rubber/resin in its place.
Nice artwork!
I like the idea of modular armour, it gives us an idea of how future models will look.
3rd ed really is looking to be quite a step up
The new designs are great. I cannot wait to see some redone line units form Yu Jing.
I have a drawing Carlos did in one of my rule books at a tournament. I never lug that book around as I would hate for it to get damaged.
Yes please more infinity 🙂
Cool concepts!
loving the Nomad new designs 😀
Would love to win this as my first Infinity army…never have the chance to have one 🙂
Panoceana are tickling my fancy
Keep it coming guys
Always nice to get an insight into the design process straight from the horses mouth 😉
Honestly I would buy in on Infinity based on the minis alone.
Very interesting insight into the design process. I really like the idea to find a iconic color option for every faction. Very well done!
Looking good.
Can’t wait.. Wish the box set was coming out sooner.
The Brigada is nice, but I think I prefer some of the lines and details on the Grenzer more…
loving the designs
Lookin’ good!
I love watching stuff like this. I am pretty much an illustrator in my everyday work and to see the process of making one of the miniature games I love is just so thrilling.
Love the designing process of Infinity!
As I already stated, the new “rounded armour look” of Panoceania with the curved ammo cartridge is wonderful!
Nice!
Great to see this insight into the design process. Thanks very much guys!
Great! I’ve always wanted to look at how art influence game design!
Nice vid. Can’t wait for more.
Awesome! I’m really looking forward to some new Aleph resculpts.
These figures will be quite a challenge to paint to a decent look for me.
With all the tohaa Figures to date I need a new faction in my life and Nomads look like the way forward. Design, figures, scenery all look great and i cant wait to get my hands on the 3rd ed rule book 🙂
Oh man, I can´t wait to open the box when it arrives. CARLOS HURRY!!!!
I like Nisses. I have a weekness for robes and this one is quite nice.
Great work!
Really interesting vid! I like so much this kind of interviews
Great stuff!
lovely new figures i need some
For me, either the Mobile Brigada or the Spektr are by far the best. Infinity looks like its really taking off in my area and I couldn’t be happier.
Love the look of the Nomads!
Really good to see the transition from Concept to Model – even more to hear about the research going into Modernising/Futurising the Wargear of older troops! certainly piqued my interest 🙂
Really like the new direction the art is taking.
Best starter box for any game currently available? I think so.
This stuff just keeps on looking better
I love that they are trying to strengthen the visual identity of the factions. This is always something I’ve felt they needed to do. When I first tried to pick which faction I’d want to start I couldnt see any real difference between the appearance of the factions.
Pano is what I am looking forward to.
Fantastico
No more fiddly bits? Good news!
Thank you for bringing this video; it is interesting to see how Corvus Belli approaches design of its products and the thoughts they are putting into all the details small and big. Good video!
Wow, I’m going to field a Brigada link! That model is soo awesome!
love the nomads lok, especially the spektr and the grenzer as they are fitting the tunguskan vibe!
Where are my japanese?
Nomads are so old fashion 🙂
The new art direction for infinity is so nice !
interesting
great company, very forward thinking
As always a great Video! great to get an in site into the concept behind the forces
That GITS suitcase of the CSU makes the preorder a must for itself, not that the box isn’t good enough by itself
most excellent
Already ordered 2 copies and now we play the waiting game … … … … … … …
Every model has had a huge improvement
Great models as always that just keep getting better.
It’s always nice to see those concept art, thanks!
Sooo very keen for this.
maybe I should get 2 boxes >_>
Infinity’s artists are so talented…
awesome sauce
PanOceania Orc Troops look badass.
Interesting insights!
Its nice to see a starter box in the designer’s perspecive, nice series guys!.
i like the old ones minis but i like much more the new ones
The Reverend Moiras are my favorite models of the Nomads, so seeing one as one of the exclusive models in this box is just awesome.
Cheers!
Awesome character design, I am so looking forward to Icestorm’s release!
Loving the new sculpts lads, that new ORC troop really takes it to a new level
Why that poor Healer with beard? =(
Loving the new starter sets for Pano and Nomads, wish I was a millionaire so i could just buy them all and paint them without having to work 🙁
I really like the healer lady
I really like CB’s direction when it comes to culture with their armies. They’ve taken real world walks of life, and ramped them into the future.
Can’t load plugin it says instead of showing a video on my lg2
I need some of those new fulisiers….
and all of those nomads
Really like all the designs here and compared to other companies, they are nice and distinct from 40k
The thing that concerns me about me getting into Infinity, is the fear that my painting skills are not good enough for these amazing minis.
Interesting to hear the design process for the new models. Mobile Brigada looks great!
Loving the new designs whkch concentrate on uniformaty of armour of specific armor types. Witheach video I watch, it makes me want to cease all my commission work and paint models just for me, hehe. Also love how you have moel fro different sectorials too. Wonder if they will do ankther icestorm with other factions? Maybe Firestorm with CA and Araidna or Aleph and Tohaa? 😀 in all honesty im just trying to get my mitts on morelimited figures, hehe.
Very cool stuff guy, many thanks ;0)
I did buy the infinity art book which was awesome looking.
I’m constantly amazed by the folks at Corvus Belli. The game and the models are great to be sure but the people really push this system over the edge for me. Thank you guys at BoW and Infinity for the video!
Most interesting insights.
Would be awesome if there were more such interviews even for current releases.
Nomads and PanO are the two factions that tempt me to get into this game. Going to be touch to resist this box.
Hell yeah, just logged in and found such interesting video to watch! I support the choice of units related to the chosen rules to be introduced in the starter box Op:Icestorm. Clever strategy to show the way to newbies.
About the new style direction of the game as a seasoned player I began years ago because of the old sculpts, but except for the nomad’s weapons design – which it’s good but not as good ad the old ones to me – I’m really intrigued by the new sculpts and possibilities open thanks to 3D sculpting.
And also today I found it worthy to log on BoW, you guys really know how to boost hype on a product. How can I wait till mid-september now?
Nice videos guys.
That design yo.
I am loving all of the Infinity content.
the first infinity week was why I started playing in the first place, Keep it up!
I wanna know where I can get those art prints of the Reverend Healer.
I’m really enjoying this. Can’t wait to see what they reveal at Gencon and later this year.
Nice Job
I… Love… This…. Game! I can’t wait to get another army built and painted!
I am really liking these concept sketches!
Really like what Im hearing!
The designs really seem to have been translated perfectly onto the actual models we see.
Thank you for thinking about the painter while designing these miniatures. As an average painter I need all the help I can get.
Outside of going to a major convention, this has to be the best week in war gaming yet for me. There is so much good info coming out on this absolutely amazing game. I am loving every day of it!
I really like how open CB is being with the development process for their minis.
Several questions for Carlos (if possible):
1. How much redesigning are Corvus Belli planning to do to the other current models? I’m interested on Yu Jing’s Japanese sectorial army, but I’m wondering if I should wait for any redesigned models or not.
2. Do you have any plans to make the packaging of each model to have interchangeable weapons? The way I understand it, if I would like to re-configure my model’s weapon for the next game, I may need to buy an entirely new model..
Very interesting video! it’s great to see how the creative process works. Though I love th reverend healer, i think my favourie mini in the set is the limited ed CSU model
Carlos is a legend, always good value, really interesting. Will the new art direction mean easier conversions (arm and backpack swaps etc)?
The new designs are very good. I am looking forward to getting into this game.
I cannot wait to get a copy at GenCon this year.
falling in love whit the Zero
Fantastic video, it’s always a pleasure to see Carlos talking about Infinity. He’s clearly passionate about the game and it shows in the production quality and content.
very cool, I love the new designs. Corvus Belli you are leading the pack in utilizing digital design and making the best miniatures!
I love the new Tunguska units. Can’t wait to see how the Sectorial shapes up.
It’s great to here the ideas and thoughts behind the decision making process and what’s not to love about Infinity artwork! Art book one was fantastic so good to see we could be in for more of the same in the future
Now THAT’s the hard stuff! Carlos please, don’t stop speaking and showing stuff. You how much we love your cute spanish accent. Pleaaaaaaase!!
I really like the Manga inspired design
Love the new figures. Can’t wait for Icestorm to be released!
I like listening how a game concept was being born.
so the new mobile brigada comes with a multi-flamer combo right ?
Really cool to get a glimpse of the design process. keep ’em coming!
It’s really cool seeing how seriously they think about all the details when designing the units, it carries over to the minis so clearly.
Spektr ftw!
I can’t wait!
Very very nice.
MOOOAAARRRR ART BOOKS PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love these development story vids for Infinity!
Great insight into the design process. Just goes to shows great results don’t just happen!
More Infinity!
The new Mobile Brigade rocks.
I’m normally more into Aleph, but that Brigada model is rockin’
great background info
The combat heels are a bit much…
As usual, some amazing designs coming along from CB. Mobile Brigada, though! Fantastic
Beautiful to see, can’t wait for 3rd to drop!
If I wasn’t already playing nomads I would now start. This way my collection will just grow.;)
Great! I enjoy to see behind the scenes.
Thanks for make this happen!
Very cool design.
I absolutely love, and can’t get enough of the concept art. How is there not another tome of this yet?
Really excited for Infinity’s repackaging and new rules. I have a friend picking up OP: IS for me at GenCon. Need that bonus mini!
I want it all…! 🙂
Such excellent art work.
I like the redesigns and the opportunities that 3D offer to create variations and expand the range. I just hope the miniatures don’t become too uniform. Guessing from the final result of the line troops that shouldn’t become a problem.
I am wondering what to make of my old Mobile Brigada now that it’s technically no longer that model.
Gorgeous miniatures! Can’t wait to get my hands on some of them
PSD hey, would of thought it would all be illustrator! If you ever get a chance ask how that relates to the importing into 3D process (or if they start from scratch again). Would assume they have a library of 3D part shapes to model. Exciting times!
The mobile brigada look fantastic, suspect I’ll be getting myself a starter set when they come out.
I watched this last night and was really impressed – the thought and the process that has gone into making this, and the insight these videos give, is very much appreciated!
Fine artwork and very interesting video.
I’ve not had the chance but would like to know more about Infinity and wining a set would definitely help.
3d sculpting is win.
Awesome stuff! Can’t wait for the 3rd Ed rules.
I always enjoy these behind-the-scenes where you hear about the design process and why models have such detail and personality, it makes me able to understand the diversity and the uniqueness of each factions. Thanks very much for a great video!
This just keeps getting better and better.
beautiful design work and artwork all around – these is definitely a CB masterpiece – hoping for more greatness down the road….
It’s cool to get these videos where we can take a look into the behind the scenes design/thought process.
Nice to know some of the thoughts behind it. I am loving these spotlights!
Would love a chance at winning some Infinity minis!
Such a great set, I really hope I can find the extra cash before they are all gone.
Very nice!
Great to learn about some of the behind-the-scene decisions.
Can’t wait.
Loving the new models its a huge improvement for the Nomads plus I can’t wait to try out 3rd edition rules.
The snipers are always the best
Really great to see the ideas behind the designs for each faction. It would seem that the new 3D computer modelling is making the process of design much faster than traditional sculpting which in this case is a good way of ensuring consistency and easy visual recognition. Interesting video.
Loving the new artwork
Some great designs…almost as great as that high five towards the end of the video.
I like the look of this starter set and am seriously going to grab one as soon as it becomes available here.
Would love to have the unit dossiers!
Love the new minis and their concepts.
More miniatures!
I just love the fact the Corvus Belli’s concept artwork is up there on par with some companies final artwork. Oh so glorious.
Keep it up!
Looks good
Really looking forward to getting the Infinity Operation: Icestorm starter box, learning the game and getting other involved. Great work from Corvus Belli and Beasts of War! Awesome game and an awesome insight!
Hell yes, I like the redising of PanO. If you compare the old ones with new you can clearly see some better modifications!
Amazing design, but I did not expect less from Corvus Belli.
these designs are such an upgrade over the previous scultps. I’m mildly excited to get pano, and I hate PanO
It’s interesting to see and hear the thought that goes into designing the miniatures, especially with what they were inspired by and the idea behind making them very distinct from one another. I also love all the conceptual designs for the weaponry, you can tell what they do even when both factions have very different models of weaponry.
Quite nice, even if I’d wish for less knife-wielding maniacs in power armor.
Justin where did you get that T-shirt from?
Would like to know how many changes may suffer the design from beginning to end
More Infinity please
Yes, more anime styled Characters which is great as far as I am concerned.
Thanks so much for the insight into the design process! It is great to see how your team thinks and works on designing minis and artwork. I’m getting excited for the Tunguska Sectorial!
Very interesting thx ! I look forward to see new design of the other factions !
loving this behind the scene!
cool work the company is doing!!!!keep it up
I continue to try my luck.
Just watching this makes me pray for the second Infinity art book to appear soon.
Gotta have it!!
Love the new digital sculpts
Really happy to see that CB has now got 2D and 3D design processes in sync, i.e. able to reuse the same components for the same art or miniature
wonderful stuff
Preordered my copy!
Oh it is just so beautiful! Corvus Belli are making my gaming future shine! I love the aesthetic direction Infinity has developed towards and the minis just blow you away. Fantastic!
Interesting to know how they came out with a design. Make me to want game more 😉
SO PRETTY… ^_^
The designs look cool
Great video, me as a designer love to see those insights.
What a blast! I preordered the Operation Icestorm box right away thru my local dealer. Hopefully he can get hold of enough those limited boxes.
That artwork looks awesome, keep it up!
I actually really like the CSU concept. I love concept sketches for the factions but the CSU gives a little more insight in what the everyday life outside of the military.
I like the new look of those line infantry models
I really like these design videos. It’s great to hear some of the development process.
Appleseed as a tabletop game! When the best of Anime inspires the best of European Game Design and out comes Infinity. Great insight in the internal design process. I admire that everyone has a voice in the designs: artist, designer, creative director, painter, writer and illustrator. The considerations of the different elements needed to create the perfect Infinity starter box and give new players the best possible experience with their first forays into the universe is quite interesting. I would very much like to hear, see or watch an episode on the Corvus Belli approach to game design. Does everything happen in house or do you also use external focus and rule testing (beta testing) to evaluate rule changes or new rules?
The designs are spectacular. Is there a big Infinity art book anywhere? I’d love to own it.
Always great to see the concepts behind the minis!
agreed… the results are MUCH MORE THAN FINE!
A sure way to grow the fan base. Well done!
Sweet designs
good ya think to make things work wth a sorta realistic look
Love this Content.
Awesome!!!!
That’s an impressive amount of excellent design choices
Loving all these behind the scenes stuff.
I really like the concept art and the understanding of how CB is working to create a platform so all models stay in scale and style.
Loving the insight in to the game.
Bostria, the master of this kind of stuff.
I have always loved the artwork for this game. I am eager to see how the rules play.
Love it!
I’m loving the infinity coverage, keep it up!
Stunning!
Its always interesting to learn more about the creative decisions that form the design process. Corvus Belli have always been fantastically insightful and great at explaining their ideas. It is great to see designers with such passion for what they do! 🙂
This looks like the beginning of my new Nomad army. It was inevitable I suppose. I’ll end up with one of each at some point.
Brilliant sculpts, some very talented people, I have been tempted into pre-ordering ‘ice storm ‘
cracking stuff!
The art is amazing
wow
